My Reaction When I Start New Coding Side Projects

5 hours ago 67.3K views 0 shares

The eternal cycle of developer enthusiasm: you're vibing with your new shiny project, completely ignoring last week's "revolutionary idea" that's now drowning in the depths of your GitHub graveyard. Down there lies an entire civilization of abandoned repos—each one started with the same naive optimism, each one promising "this time it'll be different." Spoiler alert: it never is. Your GitHub profile is basically an underwater museum of good intentions and half-finished TODO apps. The real kicker? You'll be back next week with another "game-changing" project while these corpses continue their eternal rest at the bottom of your commit history.

You know that moment when you're reviewing someone's PR and you're mentally composing a scathing code review about how their implementation violates every principle you hold dear? But then reality kicks in—you remember your own code from last Tuesday that looks suspiciously similar, or you realize you're already 45 minutes late for standup, or you just... can't be bothered to start a philosophical debate about variable naming conventions. So you shrug, click approve, and move on with your life. We've all been that person judging the code AND the person who wrote the questionable code. It's the circle of life in software development.

Some Men Want To Watch The World Burn

Behold the absolute CHAOS AGENT who commits exclusively on Fridays with 420 contributions, yet keeps every single repo private like some kind of code-hoarding dragon sitting on a treasure pile nobody can see. The green squares are SCREAMING for validation but this developer said "nah, I'll just let everyone think I'm unemployed." It's giving main character energy mixed with commitment issues. Why have a GitHub profile if you're gonna treat it like a secret diary? The audacity! The DRAMA!

So Who Is Sending Patches Now

Someone tried to roast FFmpeg for having a "messy codebase" and got absolutely demolished with the most brutal comeback in open-source history. FFmpeg's response? "Talk is cheap, send patches." That's the beauty of open source right there. You can't just throw shade at a project that literally powers half the internet's video infrastructure—from Netflix to YouTube to your grandma's video editing app—and expect them to care about your opinion. FFmpeg is written in C and assembly because it needs to squeeze every last CPU cycle out of your hardware to decode 4K video without melting your laptop. The tweet went viral with 200K views because it's the perfect encapsulation of the open-source ethos: put up or shut up. Don't like the code? Fork it. Fix it. Submit a PR. Otherwise, you're just another armchair architect who's never had to optimize a hot loop in their life. This is the energy every maintainer wishes they could channel when dealing with drive-by critics on GitHub.

The GitHub Distraction Vortex

The eternal GitHub rabbit hole strikes again! One minute you're fixing a bug, the next you're deep in some random issue thread from 2014 where two developers are arguing about tab spacing. Suddenly it's 4 hours later, you've learned three obscure programming languages, formed strong opinions about package managers you've never used, and that ticket you were supposed to complete? Still untouched. The dopamine hit from those spicy GitHub comment sections is just too powerful to resist.

A Second Outage Has Hit GitHub

When GitHub goes down, it's like watching the digital apocalypse in real-time. Developers worldwide collectively lose their minds as their workflow screeches to a halt. The whispered "A second outage has hit GitHub" spreads through Slack channels faster than a recursive function with no base case. Meanwhile, DevOps teams are frantically refreshing status pages while explaining to management why the entire company's productivity just dropped to zero. Nothing says "maybe we should have local backups" quite like watching your entire CI/CD pipeline crumble before your eyes!

Ah, the classic "fix Cloudflare by pushing to GitHub" scenario. Because nothing says "I understand how infrastructure works" like pushing code changes to fix a third-party CDN outage. It's like trying to fix a power outage by changing the lightbulb. Somewhere, a DevOps engineer is silently screaming while a junior dev proudly announces they've "solved the problem" right before the entire internet magically comes back online on its own.

Reset The Counter: Microsoft's AI Adventure

Oh. My. GOD! The absolute DRAMA of it all! Microsoft proudly announces that 30% of their code is now AI-generated, and then BOOM! 💥 Git operations are failing EVERYWHERE! It's like watching a corporate horror movie unfold in real-time! The grim reaper couldn't have timed his entrance better! One minute they're bragging about AI writing their code, and the next minute their Git operations are having an existential crisis. Coincidence? I think NOT! This is what happens when you replace human developers with AI that learned to code by copying StackOverflow answers without reading the comments! Reset the counter indeed—we've gone exactly ZERO days without a Microsoft AI disaster. The skeleton is all of us watching our repositories crumble while Microsoft's PR team frantically tries to explain that AI definitely wasn't responsible for this catastrophe. Sure, Jan. 🙄

Correlation Between Life Events And Boot Failures

Correlation Between Life Events And Boot Failures

Someone opened a GitHub issue for Arch Linux's installer with the title "I lost my virginity and now Arch won't boot #4269" and honestly, that's the most Arch Linux thing ever. The distro is so notoriously finicky that even the slightest change to your system—apparently including life milestones—can break your boot sequence. The fact that there are 169 open issues just confirms what we all suspected: using Arch is basically volunteering for a part-time job as your own IT department.

The Most Important Issue

When your dating life is so broken you file it as a GitHub issue. Classic developer move—thinking social interactions can be debugged with a pull request. "Women's profiles don't answer when I text them. Please fix this problem." Yeah buddy, that's definitely a code issue and not the fact that your opening line was probably "Hello World" followed by a request for her SQL. The best part? It's issue #412—meaning there were 411 previous complaints about the same "bug." Maybe try catching some social skills instead of exceptions.

Just One More Project

The graveyard of abandoned repositories grows by one every time someone says "I should build a quick tool for that." Those apples represent the countless projects started with enthusiasm, only to be abandoned after the initial commit. The kid is already eyeing the next shiny project while the previous ones rot quietly on the digital shelf. My GitHub profile is basically a museum of good intentions with terrible follow-through. The README.md files should just read "Temporarily abandoned until I feel guilty enough to open this again in 2027."

The TRAGIC miscommunication of our times! 💔 He's talking about programming mascots like Python's snake, PHP's elephant, and Linux's penguin, while she's over there thinking about ACTUAL PETS! The rubber duck isn't just some cute bath toy - it's the silent therapist that listens to your code problems without judgment! The ultimate debugging companion that makes you realize your mistakes the SECOND you start explaining your code out loud! Meanwhile, she's just there with her collection of adorable fluffballs thinking they're on the same wavelength. HONEY, NO. His animals debug code; yours just shed on the furniture!
